Check out the anti gay banner. It needs a spell checker. From our local paper.

or I need my prescription checked
Your report on the festival is sensitive, and beautifully captured, all my superlatives are dated and overused. The little girl in the water - her face is the reason we need to do right by or children. All of them.
And the two guys show a capture of a moment not many of us get, ever. The others, portraits, are simply filled with life.
Great work.

How one reports. The girl's face was the real surprise of the day. When you are dodging kids and fountain jets, it puts a bit of randomness into results.

The light and the sunburned skin was a challenge. Going black and white was the best choice. The little girl's skin color against the background caused her to blend in. Again, black and white brought out the differences in the shades.

I really like the two guys image. Guys are not as willing to be shown out, but these guys were willing to show the world that they are in love.
